DC Weekly Review: July 7, 2023 (Week 27)

Help Support The Heroes We Love: You can purchase all DC Comics digitally through their digital app, or the Comixology service. This month, we’re highlighting the Knight Terrors Event that has replaced normal publications. Is it a great idea to suspend on-going publications of storylines that just started for a Two-Month Event?Well you can decide for yourself, when you read the opening salvos of the story at DC Universe Infinite, when you subscribe to the Ultra Annual Level (which runs the price of $135 CAD).

Weekly Omissions- Peacemaker Tries Hard #3

Hero Of The Week- Knight Terrors kicks off this week, so of course the Dark Knight rises to the top of the pack. Bruce Wayne took our Hero Of The Week Award, bringing in 23 Points Over 2 Appearances. Interestingly enough, Batman gets largely sidelined at the end of this first Week, before the Event proper even kicks off. We’ll see who rises to the top in the coming 7 Weeks.

Antagonist Of The WeekKnight Terrors has introduced an unstoppable force in the Fantasy Comic League, in the form of it’s Antagonist Insomnia. This would be his smallest Week during this Event, and yet he still brought in 26 Points over 3 Appearances. This gave him Antagonist Of The Week, while his 16 Point singular Appearance gave him Performance Of The Week.

Book Of The Week- It’s an Event week, which book do you think would be sitting at the top? The Zero Issue of Knight Terrors, Knight Terrors: First Blood #1, is our Book Of The Week. It brought in 65 Points over 15 Characters. Given the isolated nature of the Event, let’s hope there is no 300 Point Plus finale coming.
